MRL Fifty-Five Followers Fun Giveaway
Okay here it is! The Making Rebecca Lynne Followers appreciation giveaway! Why? Because I can and more importantly because I want to show you all how much I appreciate you!
So what is up for the giveaway...? This Echino Madrigal Peach Pouch created by moi & some destash!
I was debating whether to make a pouch this size for myself and decided to see what I could fit inside and show you all. It fits perfectly in the hand, so cute! Plus, I was able to fit and close the pouch with my phone, earrings (big to some), lipstick, hair-clip, and keys with my massive keychain inside. Pretty good don't you think?
Destash includes some Amy Butler, Heather Ross, Tina Givens (great for fussy cutting), Kokka Hippos, bits (varying sizes) and some random fat quarters that I have no idea what the names are. But one of them is dots!
What to do...
Please leave a comment PER ENTRY because I will be using a Random Number Generator to Pick the winner!
1. BONUS entry to my current 55 Followers. Because there would be no Fun without you...if you are one of the first 55 then please leave a comment stating Bonus Entry. [This idea came from Helen so do pop onto her site and leave her some thanks!]
2. Follow MRL and leave a comment, OR if you already do then leave a comment to remind me
3. Become a Fan and Like MRL's Facebook Page and leave a comment to let me know
4. Blog about the Fifty-five Followers Fun Giveaway and leave me a comment with a link
5. Tell me how you feel about Sampler QALs. Is it something you like to do or do you prefer to QAL a different kind of quilt altogether. Or do you not like QALs at all? Spill the dirt...
Mr. Random Number Generator will help me pick a winner at Midnight Eastern Standard Time on Wednesday October 12th, 2011!
Whew hew! Good Luck!

That is SO cute, especially with the touch of lace. Those metal frames intimidate me.

LOVE the de-stash fabrics!! BONUS entry. :)
I have never done a QAL so not sure how I feel about them.. but a sampler one would probably be right up my alley.
cute pouch, i want to make one!
bonus entry
Of course I follow you around.
Hmmm sampler quilt alongs I normally book mark the ones I like to go back to at a later date (Once my ever growing WIP list shrinks) then find that everyone is finished quilting along and do it on my own using the posts flickr groups and comments kindly left by others as inspiration, cheeky yes but it works for me :D
Blogged!!! Check my latest post. :)
Gotta take A. to school, but will like your FB page when I return--have a great day! :) Happy Giveaway!!
Well, here is my Bonus entry first ;-) cause I've been amongst the first 55! Congratulations btw! My numbers are kind of stagnating right now.
And yeah, I'm a follower! I really liked your post about the 3rd SBM! I can totally understand you. I had the idea of having a givaway at 50 followers too, so if you wanna support that maybe you wanna become a follower of mine ;-)
QAL ... hmm? Well, I'm joined the DSQAL and that's all the experiance I got. I was thinking about the Summer Sampler QAL. Really liked it but well, summer is over ;-) I wouldnt mind seeing more Sampler QALs but dont know if I would join. My number one priority right now is finishing my degree.
Hi Rebecca, I think you know I subscribed to your blog weeks ago, but I did so on Google Reader, so I didn't show up to you as a follower. I am a follower now! I love your blog.
I also love that little birdy pouch. Very cute fabric, and the lace is a nice touch. Thanks for doing the giveaway!
Bonus entry.
I do follow you and I always enjoy reading up on your latest.
I blogged your giveaway at http://countrymorningdesigns.blogspot.com/
Bonus entry!
I've been a follower since the 1st. :)
I haven't participated in any of the sampler QALs, but did think about it. I do like the other ones I've done though and would do a sampler. I think it's fun to see everyone's interpretation of a design.
Ooh! Pick me, picke me! Bonus entry!
Follow you. Anywhere. Anytime. :)
I like you. Oh, and I like you on FB too!
I like Sampler QAL's that help me learn. I'm doing the Embroidery 101 which helps with that and Skill Builder which helps with my quilting skills!
Bonus entry!
Absolutely, a follower!
Love QAL of any kind although I don't necessarily do them in real time. This year is the exception- I'm on board for three!
Your giveaway pouch is absolutely amazing!
Just blogged your giveaway!

Thanks for hosting such a great giveaway! I love the touch of lace on the purse!
Bonus Entry (I use Google Reader...does that count)?
I love QALs, although I have to have all of the required fabrics and tools available in my craft closet...no time to run to the store!
woo hoo, I just got in there in the '55' having found you on lilys quilts! Love the purse and there is some seriously lovly fabric in that stash
oh yes - follower
I have only ever done one QAL - the across the sea, which will inspire me to do another one
Bonus entry!
I follow you because I love you :)
(is that stalkerish at all?!)
I like MRL on facebook! I do NOT like the new version of facebook however
I have blogged about your giveaway :)
http://charmaboutyou.blogspot.com/2011/10/win-win.html
I like any QALs especially ones I learn from - I think that's why I'd lean towards sampler - also because it's easier to use what you have for some if not all of it. I so hope this means you're going to do one?!! ;)
Cute purse. GFC Follower but I'm #57.
melodyj(at)gmail(dot)com
Well, Congratulation! And what a fun prize..I would love that little bag.

This is my big bonus entry. :)
Bonus entry, baby!! Heck yeah, I've been following you forever!
I totally follow you.
So, I used to completely dislike sampler quilts, but after seeing some of the awesome ones made this summer, I think I may be changing my mind.

I love sampler QALs. You never get bored because once you tackle a block, it's on to another one.

Bonus entry! I was THE 55th Follower!
I follow you of course :p
I liked you on facebook! I'm Stephanie Nagano.
Ive always wanted to do a QAL but I haven't yet. I'm trying to finish some of my projects before I start new ones. Ive been kicking ass on completing my wips so maybe I'll join a QAL soon!
I like QALs in general. I think they are a fun way to try something new, and bond with other quilters from all over the world. I haven't done too many yet, so I'm still getting a feel for them.
I'm a new follower and pretty new, too, at this whole quilting thing.
I haven't done q QAL yet. But when I do, I'll be looking for simple and effective. I'm not as interested in sampler QALs, though I love watching everyone else's progress.
I've learned how to quilt following QAL, great thing for beginners
New follower

I `liked` you on FB...by the way, I love your goodies...fab giveaway!
I just did my first QAL so I`m a bit of a novice but I totally loved it and could get addicted. I really liked the look of the Summer Sampler quiltalong, which made traditional blocks look fun and modern...so all in all I think I like them!
Congratulations - now up to 62!! I love the pouch and the FQs, such a great giveaway prize! Bonus entry!!!
Of course I'm a follower!! Thanks for the giveaway!
I've blogged about your giveaway http://archiethewonderdog.blogspot.com/2011/10/another-novella-or-why-i-seem-incapable.html Thank you!
Me again! I blogged about your lovely giveaway here http://kechquilts.blogspot.com/2011/10/ive-got-lots-of-charms.html
I love QAL's but I don't like samplers!!!
i am now a follower :))
i have not yet done a sampler or quilt along but i am sure i would enjoy !!!
I am a new follower coming from life's rich pattern...
love the de-stash patterns
no quilting blog, so, a comment on quiltalongs - doing my first one this fall - anxious for the next step, as the QAL hasn't really started yet. I'm a beginner.
Bonus Entry!
Remember I follow you!
I have liked you on facebook:)
I don't like sampler quilts much, with some exceptions, such as glorious appliqué. I am often impressed by them but I wouldn't one on my bed.
Your pouch is gorgeous! I'm a new follower :-)
Well, no surprise I love quiltalongs - I probably prefer a regular quilt to a sampler style but it does depend on the pattern and look!
I've blogged about this giveaway :)
I'm now a follower!
Like the sampler QALs
Bonus entry found you on lily's blog.
Follow you from my dashboard blog reading list.
Followed you on facebook!
Have never made a quilt sampler QAl's though I love reading about them on bolgs, I have bought I book The Quilters Bible so I may get started on one.
Love your pouch!
I have added your link to my blog. http://www.craftybags.blogspot.com
I'm a new follower, just found my way here from the link on Life's Rich Pattern. Love the gorgeous pouch and the pretties from your de-stash!
BONUS ENTRY! I want one of these darling pouches for Christmas!
Love your purse. Especially that pop of colour on the inside. Great work making it to 55 followers(62 now I think?)! No more small blog meet for you!
I'm claiming my Bonus Entry( said in a silly sing-song voice)!
I'm not a fan of the sampler quilt. Something about them all being different patterns upsets my poor little OCD brain.
I am a new follower! Great giveaway!
I like you on Facebook!
bonus entry- ah, to be one of the privileged few...
i am a follower! love your posts! wish my pictures were as nice as yours...or my projects for that matter!
i like QALs, but have never done a sampler one- if i did, i would try that summer sampler that made the rounds from swim bike quilt. i loved those blocks.
Love this pouch, is perfect in size and fabric :D
I'm a follower!
I only use little purses. I can't handle big purses with all these places for your cards...I like a bit of mess, stuffing receipts back in it and finding a €20 note stuck between two credit cards. It is very pretty and mmm it would be right at home in my bag.
Oh and a bonus entry...which I love, what a great idea!
I'm a new follower!
I like MRL on FB!
I'm not really interested in doing a QAL at this time - up to my neck in projects already!
I am in a sampler bee, which I really love, but I don't know if I'd join a sample QAL because of having to learn all the different blocks at once.
I like you on Facebook!
I've added your giveaway to my blog at http://www.craftbuds.com/giveaway-roundup/. Feel free to link up future giveaways here! :)

I was just blogged yesterday that I'd like to do a sampler quilt so I could learn new blocks so I like the idea as long as the blocks weren't too tricky.
I'm now a MRL FB fan.

I like sample quilts - love the scrappy look and how the come together. thanks for the giveaway.

I haven't done a sampler QAL yet. But I'm sure I'd give it a try! A sampler would probably be good for me ;)
I am now a follower. Thanks for a great giveaway.

I posted yout giveaway on my blog here: http://itsmelealee.blogspot.com/p/giveaways.html
I'm not a fan of quilt-alongs unless they are a simple weekend one. I only have time to sew then and cannot keep up with the others!
i just signed up for email :)
I am a new follower, and looking forward to exploring your site!
I like MRL on Facebook
I am pro QAL though I have yet to do one. I've joined the Summer sampler Flickr group because I wanted to join in and will do it sometime... In general I think it's great to do things together with support!
Well, I am a new follower - found you through Craft Buds. Congratulations on your original 55 followers! Thank you for the chance to win a nice little purse and I look forward to getting to know you. Karen.
I am a new quilter, but love sampler quilts. I would like a sampler quilt along. It would be a good way for me to increase my skills.
What a cute little purse! I have a old cosmetic bag that I have used as my carry around sewing kit for more years than I can remember. The plastic is long gone and I was just thinking that I really need to get a new one. It's starting to let lots of light in from all the pins and needles I stick in it. It looks about the size of yours. Just thinking!?!
I'll follow you, I love to read what everyone is doing. Thanks.
I am a big fan of Echino. I'm in.
I included your giveaway in my blog today:

I've never done a QAL but I do think doing a sampler would be interesting. Seeing everyone else's interpretations would be a highlight for me.
Adorable purse!!! I am a new follower!

I'm a new Follower. Awesome Echino Madrigal Peach Pouch and random fat quarters.
I would love to do a QAL. I have signed up for one 2 months ago and when the first day it started something came up, had to do work for hubby at the office or mom called she needed something done right then. so I have not had good luck with it. But I would love too!!!
I follow your blog on GFC
I love QALs, but always get involved in too many so I like them easy and quick!
Great giveaway, thank you! I am a new follower!
I am following your page on Facebook. Thanks!
I love to watch the progress of QALs, but I haven't been quite brave enough to join one yet!
Very cute bag. I became a follower and I am having a giveaway on my blog http://inchwormfabrics.blogspot.com/
The pouch is so cute! :) I'm a follower :)

I think sampler QAL are fun but I usually can't afford all the fabric it would take to do very many of them
homespunhandmaiden(at)yahoo(dot)com
I love the idea of QALs but the reality is that I intend to do them and then just don't have time. I like to see what others are doing with them though. And I especially like samplers.
I am a new fan on facebook.

I love quiltalongs regardless of if they are a sampler, themed, mystery... I'm just addicted to quiltalongs! Check out all the ones I join on my sidebar and listed at the bottom of my blog. Oh dear. Did you say quiltalong? I'm in!

I "liked" you on facebook :)
I like quilt alongs as long as I know what the end result will look like. Fabric is too expensive for me to invest in to do a project I may not love in the end. Not to mention the time involved...
I am a new follower :)
I don't have enough time for QALs... wish I did!
Hi Rebecca i am a new follower,thankyou for a chance to win your lovely prize.
I'm a new follower - thanks for the chance to win this lovely giveaway.
How have I missed this? I am following you now!
I am participating in Leila's Sewn Skill builder, which I am loving. The only problem is, that I want to do more- I could join other QALs too, butI am scared of over committing- and then not keeping up. I am also enjoying ( and already not keeping up with) Cindy's (fluffy sheep)FMQ along.
I am now following you. Thanks for this chance to win!
Free Felt Patterns is now following you on Facebook. :)
I like MRL on facebook...thanks for a chance to win!
I really enjoy the sampler quilt along that I joined.
I'm subscribing to get your posts in my inbox! Just found your blog, and really like it! Lovely purse - "moi" should be proud; she did a great job! LOL Seriously, it is awfully nice, I've never done one with the metal clasp before. You did a wonderful job, and the lace is just the right touch.
I am the Queen of Overcommitment...I simply have to stop jumping on QALs and other projects, and actually finish one!! I do love 'em tho.
Sampler QALs are fun especially when there are progressive prizes and not as much a crunch for time. I'm doing uberfest right now, delayed by flu bug though, means printing off pdf directions as work through the blocks.
